Lyrics
[Verse 1]
He stares at the fridge light
Half a beer
Half a mind
Baby shoes in the top drawer
He keeps losing his place in time
Bills stacked on the microwave
Crayon sun on the wall
He folds up his Sunday smile
Leaves it hanging in the hall
[Chorus]
Sad dad
Sad Jordan
Holding on with one good hand
Shaky laugh at the playground
Waves from the metal stands
Sad dad
Sad Jordan
Trying hard to be the man
He wished he had back then
He wished he had back then
[Verse 2]
Phone buzzes on the nightstand
He lets it ring out twice
Texts say
"You okay?"
He just answers with a like
Microwave meals at midnight
Cartoons talking to themselves
He rewinds the same old promise
Puts it back on the shelf
[Chorus]
Sad dad
Sad Jordan
Holding on with one good hand
Shaky laugh at the playground
Waves from the metal stands
Sad dad
Sad Jordan
Trying hard to be the man
He wished he had back then
He wished he had back then
[Bridge]
He whispers
"Kid
I'm learning"
In the doorway
In the dark
"I'll mess up
But I'm staying"
Every word a brand-new start (oh)
[Chorus]
Sad dad
Sad Jordan
Holding on with one good hand
Shaky laugh at the playground
Waves from the metal stands
Sad dad
Sad Jordan
Trying hard to be the man
He wished he had back then
He'll be that man
Be that man

Moody indie-rock ballad with male vocals; fingerpicked electric guitar up close and dry, soft kick and floor tom pulse under the verses, chorus blooms with wider guitars and a simple, sing-along hook; intimate, almost spoken delivery that cracks on key lines, subtle pad swells in the bridge to lift the final chorus, sad
